King Arthur's Gold

If you like total freedom in the way you conquer the enemy this is the ultimate war game for you. Build freeform constructions as a medieval Builder, fight in sword duels as a Knight or snipe with your bow as an Archer.

The last month (plus change) has been about sorting everything out community-side. We've got new admins, the discord server has continued to flourish, the community repositories are hooked up to the internal ones properly, and we've got two new "direct" contributors. There's been a lot of fiddling in control panels, preparing paperwork, and peering at command-lines. Sorry for a text-only post, it's hard to take a compelling screenshot of this kind of thing :)

New Admins: Definitely the most visible development for players; 10 new admins will be patrolling the official servers in addition to the existing crew. You can also call them to the game on discord with "@Ingame Server Admin" in the general or help channels. Huge thanks to Galen for spearheading this and to the OKSA crew in each region who chimed in on the applications. Welcome to the new admins! ːkag_flexː

Discord Server: For those that haven't joined yet, the official discord server[discord.gg] has flourished nicely. There's currently over 120 users online, almost 600 users total. It's been a hub of discussion, organisation, and tasty memes since it opened, and shows no sign of slowing down, so if you haven't joined yet, get on it! Thanks to the administration team and three cheers to @Furai getting over his irc-itis and joining ːkag_winkː

Repositories Aligned: This lets us directly use the github kag-base repository[github.com] alongside our internal repos, which is much better than manually reconciling the changes like I had to before this change was made. In particular, I should be able to merge public pull requests much more regularly, which will reduce friction on community developers contributing fixes and features. If you're interested, check out the #development channel on discord. ːkag_yesː

Direct Contributors: We've brought AsuMagic and Fuzzle on board to contribute to our internal repos directly, including the engine. This will let us service modder's requests and concerns more quickly and should help with finding bugs too as there'll be more eyes on the code. There will likely be a bit of a warming-up period as they learn to navigate the rough edges of our dated codebase, but we're looking forward to working with them.

The community has also been busy organising their own stuff:

KAG World Cup: The 2017 KWC has started being organised and currently has 70 members. You can check out the social forum here[forum.thd.vg] if you want to get involved or find out more.

Gather: The Australian community is hosting regular 5v5 gather games via their separate discord server[discord.gg]. I took part this Monday - it was a nice collaborative atmosphere with some good coordination and would be a good alternative to pub games if you're feeling frustrated there or want to up your game. Anyone is welcome, but there's currently only one server which is located in Australia. There's talk of bringing it to the official discord server and other regions too, if that's something people are interested in. The system is currently developed by cameron (cameron1010 on the kag forums) so he's the one to bug about that.

Next month should involve another build with more community maps, a whole host of fixes and improvements game-side, and doubtless more community shenanigans.

Can't wait!Max

You know the basics of building and have the concept of a few good buildings in your head. Nice, let's take it to the next level. This is a strategic overview with stuff I learned in 190+ hours of KAG.

From long time i was makeing tutorial videos where i was building traps, fighting or makeing huge arrow machine gun :) Kag is on steam now so I encourage new (old too :D) players to check out my videos at http://www.youtube.com/user/abcfranek . I hope it w...

The WHD sale was a big success raising $1183 AUD for UNICEF. The donation was put towards their general pool funding programs for health, nutrition, clean water and sanitation, education, HIV/AIDS prevention and child protection across the world.

Thanks for all your support over the sale weekend - and a warm welcome to new players!

World Humanitarian Day (WHD) is held every year on 19 August to pay tribute to aid workers who risk their lives in humanitarian service. It is also a day to remember those people who have lost their lives in the service of a humanitarian cause.

Ultimately, World Humanitarian Day helps to raise public awareness about humanitarian assistance activities and the importance of working together to solve the world’s problems.

This year the WHD Campaign is #NotATargetView the WHD #NotATarget website here[worldhumanitarianday.org]

To do our bit for raising awareness, King Arthur's Gold will be 50% off on steam for the entire weekend, and half of each sale will be donated to UNICEF at the end of the event. Pick up a copy for yourself of a friend and help save lives at the same time!

We who are lucky enough to spend our time playing video games instead of suffering violence, famine, and preventable disease, can lend our support to those that need it.

Please consider signing the #NotATarget petition, letting your friends and family know about WHD, and supporting a humanitarian organisation of your choosing this August 19th.
